I've been working with Jeff for over 10 years, and I can confidently say he is one of the most…read moreprofessional and detail-oriented CPAs I've ever met. Every year, he handles my tax return with great care and precision--nothing is overlooked, and he always makes sure everything is done thoroughly and correctly. What I appreciate most is his consistency and reliability. No matter how busy the season gets, Jeff remains patient, responsive, and highly attentive to every detail. That level of professionalism is rare and truly builds trust over time. Because of my positive experience, I also referred a friend's company to Jeff for their business tax needs. They were extremely grateful for the introduction and even told me that Jeff has been a "financial lifesaver" for their company. He helped them navigate complex situations and brought clarity and structure to their finances. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about his clients, I highly recommend Jeff. It's not easy to find a CPA you can rely on year after year, but Jeff is definitely one of them.

I had a very disappointing experience with this CPA firm. To be fair, I do believe my CPA had good…read moreintentions, and I understand that mistakes and miscommunications can happen. What really matters in those situations is how a company handles it afterward, and that is where this experience completely fell apart. My taxes may have been filed correctly, but the communication was not clear. I did not want 2026 quarterly estimated tax payments set up, and I never understood that this was what was happening. I believed the amounts shown were a payment plan for my 2025 taxes, not separate 2026 estimated payments. Because of the language barrier and the lack of a clear explanation, I did not understand what I was agreeing to. As a result, more money was taken from my account than I expected, which caused me to become overdrafted. When I reached out to get help resolving the issue, I was hoping they would at least acknowledge the misunderstanding and try to make it right in some way. Instead, when I spoke with William at the end, he was very unhelpful and basically made me feel like I was just out of luck. I was told there was nothing they could do, that I needed to deal with my bank myself to block future payments, and that they would not offer even a partial refund. That response is a big part of why I decided to leave this review. If they had simply handled the miscommunication better, shown some understanding, and at least offered a partial refund or some effort to make things right, I honestly think I would have been okay. On top of that, I feel the $700 fee was too high for the level of service and communication I received. Accuracy is important, but so is making sure your client actually understands what is being filed and what payments are being set up. Overall, I left this experience feeling confused, unsupported, and financially stressed. I understand mistakes can happen, but the way this was handled afterward was unacceptable. I would not use this firm again.

He walked us through everything, explained what we were actually signing, and never made us feel rushed when we had questions. We came from a firm that went fully digital after the pandemic. What used to feel like a real relationship turned into an assembly line. With Dylan, it was the complete opposite. When I mentioned that we're looking to build something long-term as our businesses and assets grow, he got it immediately. No explanation needed. He stayed on top of everything throughout the process. Nothing fell through the cracks, and we never had to follow up on anything. It just felt like working with someone who actually cares. We'll be back next year for sure. Thanks, Dylan.

We highly recommend his services.

Jonathan is extremely professional and will take his time to explain your tax information with you. Make sure to give them a phone call and make an appointment when you will be coming. During the appointment, he will go through all your tax documents and give you an estimate on his service. It will not take longer than 15 minutes. I feel like it's a reasonable price for the service provided. After agreeing with the service, you will leave your documents with him, and he will have it done within a week. When picking up your documents, that is when the service will be settled. And Jonathan will address any questions or concerns that you may have. Highly recommend.

Owner Jonathan's written excuse sent to my relative is he "lost (his) home in Eaton fire & is too consumed with work & dealing with IRS & FTB (CA tax) on TEL ALL DAY during in March & early April." See screenshot of Jonathan's email as proof. Everyone knows U send documents to both tax depts & then meet with agents IF required, talking on tel for hours achieves NOTHING!. Jonathan's own rule WAS to TEL him 1st before arriving @ his 1 tiny room office to pick up or deliver documents. Old reviews verify his method. Only way to reach him finally thru old email where he summarily dismissed my relatives' repeat business for rest of YR. FYI: If one lost one's home, or rental property, U deal with FEMA long ago, not now or any taxing dept . U get to deduct deduct diseaster costs too. Jonathan resides outside of Eaton fire zone too.

I have been filing my taxes with this company for 3 years. The first couple of years were fine, but…read morelater they suddenly added a significant extra charge without any clear explanation. When I questioned why the fee had increased so much, the response felt very uncomfortable and unconvincing. Since my friend and I had similar tax situations and were charged the same amount previously, I checked with other friends who also use this service. None of them were charged these extra fees. I called back again to ask for clarification, and they eventually admitted that I had been overcharged. What is most unacceptable is the lack of transparency and consistency in pricing. It feels like they charge different customers differently unless you question them directly. If I had not compared and followed up, the overcharge would likely have gone unnoticed. After supporting this business for 3 years, this experience was extremely disappointing. I would strongly recommend others to confirm all fees clearly before filing taxes here.

His professional excellence and patience helped me save thousands of dollars from mistakes in my past filings that should have been returned to me. If you are looking for a trustworthy and experienced accountant at a reasonable price to save you money, you do not have to look further! I sold my house in Arizona for a big loss back in 2014, and my former accountant made a mistake and did not get me a large sum of money that I'm entitled to, over $18,000 to be exact. During my filing for 2017 return with Mr. Li, he spotted the error and worked with me for long hours to sort out a pile of years of my past tax returns. To be honest it was a mess, but throughout the whole thing Mr. Li did not lose his patience one bit and really spent the time to analyze my situation and worked on how to amend the mistakes. Only with his detailed explanation during this tedious process did I start to see the complexity of the NOL (Net Operating Loss) that carries across multiple years and how the mistakes were made and affected me. Eventually he helped me file two amendments, one to the State of CA requesting a return of over $5,000 and another to Federal for over $13,000. So far, I have received the state return and am still waiting for the federal return. Overall, I just feel that a great accountant is not one who just has years of experience and expertise, apparently Mr. Li has all that, but more importantly a great accountant is someone who cares about your finances like his own! Mr. Li's work ethics have really impressed me. I highly recommend HJ Tax & Accounting to anyone who has any type of accounting needs!
